Fair play to BT Sport, I'm led to believe they are showing this and the Champions League final for free on their YouTube channel.
20:00....BT Sport 1 / BT Sport Ultimate / BT Sport YouTube
Manchester United confirmed starting XI: De Gea; Wan Bissaka, Lindelof, Bailly, Shaw; McTominay, Pogba, Bruno Fernandes; Rashford, Greenwood, Cavani.

We could have played in 3 euro finals then, on average, with our population. Would settle for not being a NL club.

Isn’t it more to do with UEFA insisting the final is on free-to-air?

Makes you wonder doesn't it - maybe it's not the managers that are the problem but rather issues higher up the food chain. Sound familiar? |

I thought that if Villareal got in front, Man Utd would struggle to break them down. Utd are much better when teams come at them.
Terrible defending from Utd. Exceptional defending from Villareal.

This is what about 50% of our home games will be like next season, only with significantly less quality involved. |

Rashford just not at the races tonight. One good run in the first half but he's lost the ball every time he's got it since then. Pogba keeps giving the ball away as well. Can see Manyoo rueing their missed chances in this game as their tempo isn't high enough and they'll struggle to level if they go behind again. Villarreal playing for penalties by the looks of things.

Against the park the bus teams we will probably draw as well. It is the extra motivation when coming to a great stadium than gets them fighting for every ball as if their lives depend on it.😥🙁

Not any longer. We've got the sparkly new Europa Conference League coming next season. Manyoo have been utter rubbish in extra time. Dull game with one team happy to defend during normal time and the other one either too tired or too disinterested to push for the result. |

Even the penalties were boring. They could have at least have given us a comical miss blasted over the bar like Tony Crane.

It's sad and funny in a way that the powers that be run a FOOTBALL competition. They have knockout stages, mini-leagues, and final stages leading to a cup final. All this decided by the game itself, the teams actually playing FOOTBALL.
The ultimate result is then decided by, in this case, 21 kicks of the ball. What happened to FOOTBALL, surely the 'Golden ' goal in extra time is a better way to end a competition. At least football decides the competition winner and not a penalty shoot-out.
Some may say the players become tired, but it is the same for both clubs. Also, let us not forget that today's players are far fitter than 20/39 years ago and are now classed as athletes, part of an 'elite' group of sportsmen, many of whom earn in 1 year what the rest of us can only dream of earning in a lifetime.

It’s flipping hilarious that Utd fans still have a pop at Jose whilst Pube head has achieved absolutely intercourse all...
Penalties are a lottery but in truth, Utd were excrement, Fernandez, the apparent saviour of football was invisible again, Pogba trotted about before undoubtedly being Frances main man in the summer and the rest just didn’t have anything. A club that’s spent millions upon millions had little depth and have lost to a side that have spent a tiny fraction.
Still, I’m sure the Utd narrrative will either be to demean the competition as ‘not important’ or certainly the fans will and the club will claim they’re working on a bigger project...

You have pointed out the feeling of many that a club whose players play as a united team are far better than one of individuals who are in themselves very good but fail to play as a unit. I know the difference in quality is vast but who would have given Sutton any chance of topping the NL this year, with so many ex-league clubs in it. The survival of both Harrogate and Barrow also add to this point. |

Agreed...lol at the french league. Most exciting season for donkeys years and the side with the support of an entire nation have lost the title to Lille, a small northern town (I am aware that Lille are significantly more middle class than their rivals Lens). Why? Because PSG don’t play as a unit, and if they do it isn’t for long period or consistently, talented individuals no doubt but as a team they don’t cut it. Utd the same, to some extent Chelsea looked like this before Kraftworks very own Tuschel came in. Juve, on paper have a better squad than Inter but again, aside from Pirlo seemingly over complicating it, individuality isn’t enough to win titles when one team plays as a unit... |

Some of those pens last night were pretty much unsaveable, even from the later takers who didn't initially want to take one. That is barring Luke Shaw's pen which the Villareal keeper pretty much fumbled into his own net.

Is there a footballer who flatters to deceive more than Pogba? Brilliant for 5 minutes and gives the ball away for 15.
The penalties were brilliant though given the pressure. Most of them were brilliantly executed

Mourinho managed them to second behind City in what was a massive overachievement but OGS has topped that this season. With Liverpool back to full strength next season (and City actually having to try a bit to make up for it) and Tuchel getting a pretty good Chelsea squad playing a bit they’ll get left behind again.
